"One question remains (about the DTV conversion) and I think I know the answer. Will we be losing the ability to get Channel 6's audio on our FM at 87.7? I'm guessing that will be a thing of the past. Oh, well. Fun while it lasted."

You do know the answer, alas. A quirk of the airwaves that I don't understand has till now allowed listeners to hear WDSU's audio at FM-87.7.

According to Joel Vilmenay, the station's general manager, that quirky bonus feed goes away when local stations make the switch to digital on Feb. 17, 2009.
